Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
Inhabit burrows made of crushed coral or sand. Hovers vertically, above or near its hole. The male courts the female by swimming in an arched position with his fins spread towards her (Ref. 9710). Male broods the eggs orally (Ref. 5521). Monogamous and always in home-ranging pairs, that is they do not defend an exclusive territory (Ref. 52884). Has been reared in captivity (Ref. 35427).
